How children get a place in Port-Daniel--Gascons
The neighbourhood school
Where a family lives sets the school: each board draws a catchment around every one of its schools, and a child living inside it has a place there. Other schools take children from outside when they have room.
English schools in Quebec
Eligibility for English schooling comes from the family’s schooling history; without a certificate, a child goes to a French school.
The provinces’ education acts and the boards’ own admission policies; check with the board for a given address.
The 3 schools in and around Port-Daniel--Gascons
What this data can and can’t tell you
- Boards and systems. Quebec’s public schools come under French service centres or English school boards, by language since 1998; private schools stand apart.
- The year. 2025-26, the latest open list.
- What isn’t here. No province rates its schools by inspection, and enrolment covers one year (Ontario and Alberta only), so there is no trend.
- One school, two buildings. The ministry lists buildings, not schools: a two-building school has two entries here.
- The kinds of school. Elementary and secondary come from the grades each school offers; a school offering both counts as all-grade.
- Which schools count. The page takes in schools within Port-Daniel--Gascons and up to 3 km past its boundary, so a school just over the line is still here.
